Shelley – Poetry & Prose

Our favourite Modern Library point of reference on Percy Bysshe Shelley with Carlos Barker English Prof at Princeton’s expert view

Very good condition in a near perfect dust jacket.

Contains narrative poems and lyrical dramas including Promethues Unbound, Adonais and The Sensitive Plant … and Lyrical and reflective poems including Mont Blanc, Sonnet to the Nile and

To A Skylark ….

Hail to thee, blithe Spirit!
Bird thou never wert,
That from Heaven, or near it,
Pourest thy full heart
In profuse strains of unpremeditated art.

Higher still and higher
From the earth thou springest
Like a cloud of fire;
The blue deep thou wingest,
And singing still dost soar, and soaring ever singest….

Shelley a large dose … makes for a lovely gift …

Published by Greene’s American publishers Viking in 1970. A pretty good copy.

Surely Graham Greene’s funniest book – as with many of his the basis of a movie success. Parts of this appeared in Playboy!?
